yes. it takes literally 45 seconds to send a text and you chose to wait the entire day to wish your mother a happy birthday ๐ฅด even if you said HBD I'll call and wish you a proper one later I think that would've been better than her feeling like you forgot about her
My mom cried on her birthday because I waited until 5:30 PM to call her.
Yeah, you read that right. I'm 30, she's 74. I finished work, picked up the phone, and wished her a happy birthday. To me, that's a normal evening call.
But she was so upset I hadn't called or texted earlier that day, she actually started crying on the phone. Now I feel like the absolute worst person for making her emotional on her special day, but I'm also really taken aback by the whole thing. Was I in the wrong?
